A broken or malfunctioning garage door presents an inconvenient and possibly hazardous situation. Knowing how to maintain and repair a garage door properly helps minimize potential risks and aggravation.
Some garage door problems may be fixed without the help of a garage door contractor. For example, if a garage door opener is not working, check the photocells for any blockage and make sure that the opener has power. Also, periodically lubricating the garage door rollers can help reduce the wear that occurs through normal use. However, other garage door repairs should be left to the experts. Replacing broken springs, particularly torsion springs, is extremely dangerous and should not be attempted by a do-it-yourselfer.
Garage door contractors typically offer a variety of services, including new installations and repairs to existing installations and associated garage door parts. Garage door contractors should carry both workers' compensation and liability insurance.
